Due to continued winter weather conditions, Lee County Schools will be closed for all students and staff on Friday, February 21, 2025. Ice and snow continue to linger on many secondary roads, and the sidewalks and parking lots at several of our schools remain hazardous, with minimal melting taking place. After consulting with local law enforcement and emergency management, it is clear that travel conditions remain unsafe for our students and staff.
This is a full school closure—no work needs to be completed. It’s a good old-fashioned snow day! Get outside, stay safe, and take this opportunity to enjoy the winter wonderland with family and friends. Make some great memories!
Stay warm, and we’ll see you soon!
We hope everyone stays safe and warm today!! If you go out and enjoy the snow, then send us a picture! Pictures may be shared on our social media and/or yearbook!
Due to worsening road conditions, below-freezing temperatures overnight, and the possibility of more winter precipitation tomorrow morning, Lee County Schools will operate on a remote learning day for all students and staff members on Thursday, February 20, 2025. There will be no live instruction on this day. Students were given assignments to complete and submit in order to receive attendance credit. They will have five days to complete these assignments.
All campuses will be closed, and no staff should report to their sites. Staff members should consult with their immediate supervisors regarding work that needs to be completed from home.
